From Dates to Diapers is having a great Mother’s Day Giveaway. All you have to do is write a post about your favorite Mother’s Day memory or what you love about being a Mom. If you write the post, you have a chance to win a Sandisk USB Gator Flash Drive. Of course I love Sandisk. I have a mp3 that has been dropped and stepped on and still works! So I would love to win this flash drive.
So the big question is why do I love being a Mom? Motherhood is definitely a road that I did not plan to travel when I was younger. I thought it was just not in the cards for me. I was told I could never be a good mom because I was too selfish. I would never put anyone before myself. Then my daughter Jazz was born. I looked into that beautiful little face and my world changed. It was overwhelming at first because I could not believe I loved this little person so much. I honestly felt like my heart would burst!! She became my world, my everything. Then 4 years later my Nannah was born. She was the cutest little chubby thing! She stuck to me like glue and I loved it. 2 years later my little man TJ arrived. Even as a toddler he showed his gentle and kind spirit. He is his father’s son. And last but not least 2 more years later, K.K. made her entrance and life has never been the same. She is sweet and kind , bossy and stubborn. And you can’t help but love the little princess!
My children have shown me how to enjoy the simple things in life and how to appreciate them. It tugs at my heart when each of them tell me I am their best friend or that they love me. But the best moments are when they hug me for no reason at all. Just because. I may not have planned to be a mom, but I could not imagine doing anything else.
